BarCampChaos @ CreateChaos ’08
The best conversations happen in the hallway.
BarCampChaos is a free unconference, open to everyone, that moves those conversations into the main room, and gives all campers the opportunity to lead a discussion, share their passion, and show off their work. BarCampChaos is a mini-BarCamp session being held at the CreateChaos conference on Monday, October 13, 2008, that will put these ideals into practice and share the open source unconference format with a new group of participants. Learn more, and add your name to the wiki if you are attending at the BarCampChaos wiki.

See you there!

passion + inspiration = innovation
Before I arrived at BarCamp, I wasn’t expecting there to be such a large group of high-caliber developers there. Wow, was I ever mistaken.
